Is using a Ouija Board a good idea for a Christian?

Question : Is using a Ouija Board a good idea for a Christian?

I had something of great value stolen from me months ago and I haven’t gotten over it. I’ve prayed and prayed about it but He hasn’t answered at all. I’m very upset about this so a Ouija Board can help me out. I just don’t want to be chased by demons and all that, I just want my item of value back. Or to at least know what happened to it.

Answer by nick366000A police report probably would have been more effective.

Answer by MacGuyverismI can’t tell if you’re trolling or just stupid.

Answer by kenirayNo Christian wants to make friends with the devil. The Lord would withdraw His grace and the devil will then destroy them.

You could pray about your item but as long as you’re thinking like that, your prayers will not be heard.

Answer by JoshDemons don’t exist so go ahead and use it.

Answer by Jesus Likes ThisFor fux sake, Ouija boards are sold at Toys “R” Us. They are just toys. They do not possess any spiritual power.

Answer by PastafarianOuija boards are bull.

blind fold someone and let them use a Ouija board, the answer comes out as random gibberish (such as “354wse5e”)

It goes off of the Ideomotor effect.

Answer by The Awesome ManNo it is not. Stay focused on the word of God. Ouija boards open the doors to all kinds of trouble. Steer clear of that stuff. It’s dangerous.

Answer by imacatholic2No.

atholic Church teaches:

All forms of divination are to be rejected: recourse to Satan or demons, conjuring up the dead or other practices falsely supposed to “unveil” the future.

Consulting horoscopes, astrology, palm reading, interpretation of omens and lots, the phenomena of clairvoyance, and recourse to mediums all conceal a desire for power over time, history, and, in the last analysis, other human beings, as well as a wish to conciliate hidden powers.

They contradict the honor, respect, and loving fear that we owe to God alone.

With love in Christ.

Answer by Avatrollpost it , there is a big chance than referring to the Board

Answer by SarahPlease, for your own sake do not go anywhere near one of those things. They are extremeley dangerous.

Answer by PastorsRUsNo, they are lousy things for Christians to even think of using. They connect you to satan and the demons. They are dangerous!

Wait for God’s answer. Don’t be like King Saul who got impatient waiting for God and decided to contact a witch, who also connects you to satan and the demons.

Answer by MohammadHonestly, No. Your faith in the almighty is weak my friend, and for that, your prayers haven’t yet been answered. God is simply waiting for you to stay loyal to him before he will grace you with is unconditional love. Asking any diety other than God for anything is frowned upon in his eyes, and he will not let this sin go unpunished. Remember, money is only a possession here on earth. Our life here on Earth is nothing more than a test for our destination in the afterlife. Redifine your faith, and show God something to reward- you won’t regret it!

– God Bless!!!

Answer by Melissa SA Ouija board is a game… it even has the Milton Bradley logo on the box… so I would say it is neither evil, or a valid, powerful way to get back something that was stolen….

Answer by Lkit may have been what caused me to be possessed at the age of five. don’t, unless you want possible possession in your house.

Answer by JAMES KNo.

You do not know how it works and how to protect yourself. Without proper safeguards, you open yourself up to great risk.

Answer by AndrewI agree with the first response. It is not good to give a drooling idiot a toy with small parts. Maybe your prayers haven’t been answered because there isn’t a god.

Just a general question, when you pray how does god respond? an email or something?

Answer by CamilleYou will rue the day you did that either out ignorance or on purpose. The demons come on you and on all your family and then you are cursed. Until you go get deliverance .
“What are Ouija boards? Should a Christian play with Ouija boards?”

Answer: The modern Ouija board was created in the late 1800s as interest in spiritualism grew. A Ouija board is simply a game board that has the alphabet, numerals, and “yes” and “no” printed on its face. Used in conjunction with a pointer, Ouija boards are believed to allow spirits of the dead to communicate with the living. They are often considered to be communication gateways to those who have “passed over.” Of course, this is all based on the supposition that spirits, or ghosts, even exist in the first place and that they can, or want to, communicate with the world of the living.

The Bible has a few things to say about engaging in activities of this nature:

Leviticus 19:31 – “Do not turn to mediums or seek out spiritists, for you will be defiled by them. I am the LORD your God.”

Deuteronomy 18:10-12 – “Let no one be found among you who sacrifices his son or daughter in the fire, who practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead. Anyone who does these things is detestable to the LORD.”

Isaiah 8:19 – “When men tell you to consult mediums and spiritists, who whisper and mutter, should not a people inquire of their God? Why consult the dead on behalf of the living?”

Galatians 5:19-20 – “The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; idolatry and witchcraft; hatred, discord, jealousy, fits of rage, selfish ambition, dissensions, factions and envy; drunkenness, orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.”

Occultists will insist that the boards work by allowing spirits of the dead to move the pointer in answer to queries. Scientists have yet to prove that the pointer is moved by anything other than the living people touching the pointer. In fact, spirits of the dead seem to get extremely confused when participants are blindfolded, at which point the Ouija board suddenly ceases to work correctly.

“Playing” with a Ouija board is engaging in occultism and is definitely not an option for a Christian. Such activity is clearly forbidden in the Bible. No matter how innocent it may seem, playing with Ouija boards can be an opening for demons to invade our hearts and minds. All demonic activity is under the control of Satan, whom Peter describes in no uncertain terms: “Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour” (2 Peter 5:8). The scriptural example for dealing with items that pertain to the occult (books, music, jewelry, occult games, and other occult objects) is to confess involvement with them as sin and burn the items—safely, of course (Acts 19:18-19).

Question : Where in the bible does it say that you cant have oral sex?

I heard one of my friends tell my other friends that God doesn’t want you to have it. Where exactly in the bible does it say that?

Answer by primoa1970It doesn’t. Oral sex is fine……as long as it’s within the marriage covenant.

Between one man & one woman……….married……….no exceptions

Answer by Wendy Sit doesn’t

Answer by MegzLoL Tell your friend that if God didn’t want you to have sex, that we wouldn’t have reproductive parts.

Answer by Rev. wing wang woo woo TCany sex is fine.

Answer by BrandonIt makes no mention of it.

Answer by Acid ZebraI think your friend just doesn’t like to choke on wieners.

Answer by BURN IT!It doesn’t say that anywhere. In fact, in The Song of Solomon there is a passage that some interpret as poetically referring to oral sex. It says something like “I sat beneath my lover’s tree, and the fruit was beautiful to taste”.

Answer by WryIt only says it’s dirty, not that you can’t do it. Just a guess.

Let me elucidate. Having done it both of you must wash your entire bodies with water and then you will be unclean until the even.

Again, this is just a guess.

Answer by j-jWhen I read the bible I will let you know the answer. In the mean time do what you want.

Answer by KrytenIt doesn’t, and it also doesn’t say you have to be married to have oral sex.

Answer by MelvinThe Bille does not talk about oral sex,but any sex outside of marriage is fornication.

Answer by EmilyIt doesn’t. Besides Jesus didn’t write the Bible. Some people came together and wrote it and they aren’t friends with him.

so I’d say go ahead and do as much oral sex as you’d like and have fun.

Answer by Mr. SlavIn the book of Genesis, the wicked people of Sodom and Gomorrah were punished with fire and brimstone due to their sexual deviancy. They practiced sodomy, a word, derived from the city of Sodom, that refers to the acts of anal sex, oral sex, zoophilia, or any type of sexual deviancy, essentially.

Answer by Gorkbark Porkduke Gefunken FubarNowhere. If god did not want you to have oral sex he would not have put the sex organs within reach of the mouth. Actually the Bible talks about sodomy, which includes oral sex, but that was just because the men who wrote the Bible did it with goats.

Answer by Applied KLike an apple tree among the trees of the forest, so is my beloved among the young men. In his shade I took great delight and sat down, and his fruit was sweet to my taste. (Song of Solomon 2:3)

Answer by CurtisAll sex which is enjoyed by both between a married couple is a gift from God and is fine. Sex out side of marriage between a man and a woman is a sin.

Answer by Rene CNowhere, in the old covenant you can read bestiality, incest and more are sin, also in new covenant is quite clear sexual relationships outside the marriage are not allowed as well as same sex relationships.

Question : would someone read the start of my short story?

title: STALKER

There was a pale pink floret lain on her bed, chrysanthemum was it? Carnation was it? A blanket was thrown loosely near her pillow. The pillowslip was unclean, shabby. The reedy space between the cushion and the case was black. How many of her secrets, her wishes, weak sighs, were surrendered to that place? I longed to reach into the blackness, repossess what I could of her, but I dared not. I walked quietly towards it, hesitating. Slowly, slowly now. I placed the tips of my fingers upon the velvety surface, closing my eyes faintly. I sighed, pressing my palm into the creases.
My hand was unyielding to my wish, moments passed. The sun spread its filaments upon the wooden floor. More moments passed, desperation quickened my heart. Moments passed, an anxiety quickened my breath. My body was unyielding. The air thickened, I sighed faintly. Rolling my head back towards the ceiling, I felt a strange nirvana. This was not the first time. I breathed her scent in, it had always been there. Yet, the starkness, the apparent strength of it, rendered me completely immobile. The slow oscillation between despair and hope could be felt in the steady motion of the ceiling fan. It whirled lazily, unfazed. The bulb in the center was discolored.
I felt its dull light creep slowly into my already immobilized body. Was this freedom? Somehow it seemed so. What a mockery, people twilling about with restraint, small puppets they were. Held by weak strings. Weak strings that danced and swirled, and tangled upon themselves. These were the same weak strings, the very same weak strings, which had held the jeerers, the jokers, together.
But it very well is for the best. I have known it all along. My desires, stood a plane above the rest. They reached the pedestal of my darling. For you do know, such a pedestal reaches with its golden spiral stairs to the very heavens?
Carnations was it? Chrysanthemums was it? I sniffed the air through my dry left nostril. It drove me to a fury, almost a madness. Had my doll betrayed me? A cold boned chill swept through me. The hanging fan moved in circles, slowly. I growled deeply, movement returning to my arm. It seized the blanket, moving almost by instinct, and yanked it onto its red belly. The back of it was a mustardy yellow, so putrid. So putrid next to the pink of the, carnations was it? Chrysanthemums was it? My hand grasped the floral bunch, so gingerly as not to crush it. I looked at the flowers, almost lovingly. Almost as a mother would her blathering child.
My doll was unwise, but at heart she would never be disloyal to me. I would teach her that flattery of a man is ill received. Taking the adulation of a man could give him the wrong message. She would nod at me slowly, bow shaped lips opening in surprise.
A certain gay laughter seized me, my head lolled to stare directly at the mattress, I’m not certain of how long the laughter had lasted. When it was done, I put the flowers as neatly into my pocket as I could, their gentle petal heads in first. I never did like petals on the ground, they signaled a delicate weakness of the flesh.
I would never see my love that way, she is purity. I crept out of the room, triumphant. I was protecting her, from the blithely whims of material man. As I took a quick glance at the bed lining she had lain on, I remembered her form. The soft curvatures, vaguely materializing in swooping lines that dived in and out of each other.

I pressed my lips cautiously to my hand, mine.

Answer by Sreetharan VInteresting read.. I’l share my views.

Pros: Good vocabulary, good details of the scene,nice introduction of the stalker

Cons: I felt that though the scene is intense, i lost my way halfway thro. Maybe make it a little less poetic?

But good start. Keep going. Cheers:)

Have you prayed specifically to St Anthony? He’s supposed to be the saint for things that are lost, and praying to him can’t do any harm. On the other hand playing with ouija boards, whether you believe in spirits or not, can do strange things to people. Much better not to meddle in that stuff.

First of all God answers all prayers. The ones that seem to be “ignored” is God saying “no”. An Ouija board can summon evil spirits. I’ve heard of a person asking the Ouija board what to do, and she was told by the Ouija board to burn herself. She burned the Ouija board instead and found it on the table the next day, no burns at all. So no its not a good idea for anyone. I’ve heard bad things about it from non-christians so I see no reason why a Christian needs one.

It will open up demonic activity in your life if it hasn’t already started.

Trust God! He will restore to you what has been stolen. You need to be patient. A lot of times it’s not in our timing. We aren’t always patient so sometimes we grow weary and we miss out on the answered prayer.

It takes faith to receive from God. Definitely asking the devil to find your item is going to invite trouble in to your life. Stay away from that!

God created a set number of angels. one third of all angels rebelled. God turned the rebels into spiritual darkness aka demons, and expelled them from heaven down to earth. demons disguise themselves as ghosts, aliens, dead relatives during seances, spirit guides, ascended masters, channeled entities, automatic writing spirits, ouija board movers, pagan gods, angels of light, etc. for example, a psychic/astrologer/medium/seer is shown pictures by the demons. then this psychic tells you what the demons showed her. tarot cards and crystal ball are tricks to fool the eye. another example would be an ancient egypt’s shaman (in the southern region) knowing when the nile river is going to flood in the southern region. a demon would tell him that the nile river up north started to flood. demons move very fast. so, this shaman would know that the river is going to flood 30 minutes before it flooded the southern region. this must be hard for you to believe, but it’s the truth. meditation leads to demon possession. tattoos give rights to demons to bother you. witches and wizards give birth to kids who are demon possessed from birth. astral projection allows demons to cohabit with that person’s soul inside that person’s body. hindus and buddhists consider mountain kailas in tibet holy. this mountain is a fake mountain, and inside it there is a ufo base. demons take care of this base. but don’t be surprised by it. as was mentioned before, pagan gods are demons. if you really think of it, it’s really sad. but, don’t get discouraged. God wants to forgive everyone their “shady” deeds. all you have to do is to ask God to forgive you your sins. God just wants you to show your allegiance to Him, and you’re guaranteed heaven.

Since “fornication” isn’t ever defined, people just take whatever sexual practices they want to codemn and say that those are fornication. The Bible never explicitly states not to have oral sex. It does describe the act in the erotic love poem “Song of Songs” (or “Song of Solomon”).

2:3 As the apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved among the sons. I sat down under his shadow with great delight, and his fruit was sweet to my taste.
4:16 Come … blow upon my garden, that the spices thereof may flow out. Let my beloved come into his garden, and eat his pleasant fruits.

oral sex can fall under some definitions of sodomy which the bible prohibits. Also, I find it interesting that Christians are saying oral sex is okay, when the reason that masturbation is prohibited is that it is a waste of your “seed” (check out exodus and see what the good book says about allowing your seed to fall to the ground). So, it would seem that the bible would prohibit a man receiving oral sex (at least to completion) as strongly as it would prohibit masturbation.

Maybe we shouldn’t trust a 2000-3000 year old collection of stories dictate personal aspects of our lives. Even if those laws fit the world of ancient history, why would they still be accurate several thousand years later?

the text itself doesn’t, but there are things that need to be understood, to be able to understand why it isn’t allowed

first off, Onan wasted his seed, spilling it on the ground, refusing to provide an heir for his dead brother, and was killed directly by God for such
there is also a commandment in Deuteronomy to follow any and every law that the Sanhedrin establishes…………….God, being all knowing, already knew EVERY law they would come up with, and STILL proclaimed this law, to follow EVERYTHING they established under pain of death…………..if the Sanhedrin gets something wrong, GOD HIMSELF will resolve the issue, but even still, it is NOT in our hands to discard any of their laws

the Sanhedrin forbade any sexual act that could not produce a child………….not to say that EVERY time two people had sex HAD to produce a child, that was in the hands of God………….but if the act could NEVER produce a child, the act was forbidden…………and even certain positions which COULD produce a child were forbidden

it could be compared to the idea of food…………not all things nurish the body, but even some things that do nurish the body, God still forbade, such as shellfish, (lobster, shrimp, crap), and pig, and camel, as well as many other animals

1 Thessalonians 4:4-6 (New International Version)
4that each of you should learn to control his own body[a] in a way that is holy and honorable, 5not in passionate lust like the heathen, who do not know God; 6and that in this matter no one should wrong his brother or take advantage of him. The Lord will punish men for all such sins, as we have already told you and warned you.

It doesn’t. But the RC Church doctrine is that since you cannot get pregnant from oral sex, it is lust-inspired rather than love-based. Therefore, it is dirty and sinful. The reasoning is the same as that prohibiting birth control. No sex allowed unless there is at least the possibility of conceiving a child. Period.

I haven’t read that you can’t have oral sex. If you are married as far as I know you can. Marriage is honorable and the bed is undefiled. I agree with those that said any sex outside of a marriage is fornication.

As far as the Sodom and the Sodomites, those people were having same sex relationships. That was the reason God Destroyed those cities. Men were lusting after other men and everyone thought it was fine to be that way. Homosexuality is an abomination.

Others pointed out the wisest man in the bible Solomon, other than Christ. I am going to go back and read those…

Verse 7:3 (verse 7:2 in the King James Version of The Song of Solomon) of the Biblical Song of Songs may contain a veiled reference to cunnilingus, although many translators render the key term “navel.”[7] An alternate translation could read as follows: “Your vulva is a rounded crater, never lacking mixed wine”. (Song of Songs 7:2 שררך אגן הסהר אל יחסר המזג)

The context, moving up from her sandals to her vulva to her belly to her breasts, however, makes the meaning of “vulva” (Heb. shor), as derived from an Aramaic word meaning “secret place”, all but conclusive.[8] In many Christian and Jewish traditions the erotic intimacy between the bride and groom described in the Song of Songs is given spiritual significance.

The Bible makes no clear mention of oral sex at all. Therefore, it is difficult to produce an official biblical position. Nevertheless, based on the information that follows oral sex is not sinful and that it is permissible only within the bonds of marriage between a husband and wife.

The book Song of Solomon is a love poem between a husband and wife. This book is seen in two senses: physical love and a description of God’s love for His church. Either way, the book definitely encourages a husband and wife to enjoy the sexual pleasures of one another. It is in this beautiful book that two scriptures appear which may shed light on the issue of oral sex. Let’s take a look.

Song 2:3, “Like an apple tree among the trees of the forest, so is my beloved among the young men. In his shade I took great delight and sat down, and his fruit was sweet to my taste.”
Song 4:16, “Awake, O north wind, and come, wind of the south; make my garden breathe out fragrance. Let its spices be wafted abroad. May my beloved come into his garden and eat its choice fruits!”
Notice in Song 2:3 that it says, “…and his fruit was sweet to my taste.” Obviously this involves very intimate experience. Tasting one another can have a wide variety of applications. It appears that this is a veiled way of alluding to oral sex. Furthermore, if we look at Song 7:7 we read, “I said, I will climb the palm tree. I will take hold of its fruit stalks. Oh, may your breasts be like clusters of the vine.” Apparently, fondling of the breasts is meant here. If such enjoyment of the body is intended, and since tasting (which involves the mouth) is part of that expression, it would seem safe to say that oral sex is permissible.

What does it mean to eat the choice fruits of his garden in 4:16? She is saying that she is “his garden” and that she desires that he eat of her fruit.

The poetic use of metaphors in describing the physical relationship is sometimes hard to fully apprehend, but it seems obvious from the context that intimate sexual union is implied.

“The beloved’s request that the winds blow on her garden, that is, herself (cf. vv. 12, 15) was a delicate, poetically beautiful invitation to her lover to fully possess her (come into her). She wished to be his with her charms as available as fruit on a tree.”1

hi peter i m ur new customer i wanna say tht in﻿ my right hand there r 3 effection lines the 1st line on my finger side is long to the outside of my hand the 2nd line is long inside my hand and the 3rd line is again long in outside of my hand.

I’m confused my fate line starts on my wrist. When I say wrist I mean way down by the bottom of my thumb, also all my lines connect fate line﻿ headline life line. They all connect can you tell me what that means

I don’t know how clear i can make it here but, you can measure the life line using your left thumb. place your left thumb over your lifeline. the area covered by the left thumb = 25 years. So, you start from the beginning of the line, place your thumb from the starting point of your lifeline. that’s indeed﻿ 25 years. then move your thumb over and measure again at the end point of the first thumb mark to mark another 25 years, which will mark your 50 years of age and so on…..

Hello !!! Peter…
In my left hand , the fate line is just upto my head line but in my right hand it has crossed my﻿ heart line and there aresome branches with a very small diamod at the top of the fate line…what does that mean and which one shall I prefer ??
